FPS Audio Mac Bug Still Around for Past Month
And no signs of a fix, update, anything. Katey has said "we think we found a fix will update you" and once again silence.
Whats the REAL status here guys?

I can't believe this is going on 5 weeks now and no fix. A major company like Riot doesn't update us on the situation, fix it or even knows it is going on for a couple weeks. God Riot Game needs to get it together.
What really bugs me about this is that if this happened on PC it would probably be patched out by the first week if not day.
I stumbled across this update on the EUW boards. Looks like there's a promising fix on the PBE. I don't understand why I had to go to a different region to find out about an update on such a huge issue like this though.
Hey blessthekellen,
I have been updating my original comment on the thread where I'd initially given a status update. In fact, over the weekend I linked to the latest update -
While it may not impact you directly, I just wanted to give an update on where we're at with this one. Right now, we've deployed a potential fix to PBE and early indicators are positive - but we need to get more feedback to confirm if this has returned performance back to previous levels.
If you have a PBE account, it'd be awesome if you could test a game or two on there to see if your performance is any better and provide feedback. For now, we're targeting this to be released with 6.8 - this is assuming the fix is indeed improving performance, and also that there are no adverse affects/impact from this fix. Feedback for those of you with a PBE account can either be provided here, or directly on the PBE boards themselves.
Thanks for your patience on this one - we'll hopefully have you guys up and running at full performance (with audio!) with this fix.
TL;DR, we're looking to get this in for patch 6.8.
Also, I apologize for the bit of silence - I was OOO for a family emergency last week, and didn't have consistent access to the boards. D:
Still having major FPS drops from 75 FPS down to 5-10 consitently. No update?
RIOT DEVS: THIS IS NOT JUST A MAC ISSUE
I have a laptop (windows) and have the same issue. Granted my laptop is older (i3-2330M with a nvidia gt 540M and 8gb ram) but I can't even team fight. The lag gets worse as the game progresses.
I had sound issues with my mac while playing. Its a brand new macbook pro and I used to play on a 5 year old mac that had no issues.
Idk if my issue is the one you're talking about here but the sound would get static-y and then start lagging and cutting out every other second. This also happened in another game I play.
I went on the mac support forums and they said that the games might be too much for the game to process so sometimes the audio messes up. I lowered my graphics settings on league and my other game and haven't had the issues so far.
When the sound stuff did happen in league, i disabled audio for a minute and turned it back on and then the sound was fixed
